Jonathan attended University in Denver Colorado – while there he began studying Aerospace Science and Applied Technologies, while at the same time working to get a private pilot’s license. Having started his first business at 12 years old his entrepreneurial spirit was always a strong driver and during college Jonathan was presented with a unique opportunity that he could not pass up. He moved back to Texas, his native state, and worked with a group of industry veterans to start an industrial distribution and logistics company, which in less than 2 years grew to 60 employees and 5.5M in annual revenue.

In 2003, a new opportunity to grow a business in the Tristate was presented and Jonathan uprooted and moved to Connecticut where he applied his growth and market acquisition expertise to an emerging technology  and consulting business which he and his team grew to over $35M in annual revenues. After 14 years and over $450M in generated sales, Jonathan decided there was a new opportunity to disrupt the market.
